With ample square footage, Union Depot can comfortably accommodate anywhere from 10 to 1,000 attendees. Choose Union Depot for your event, where the historic charm and adaptable spaces combine to create lasting memories, regardless of the occasion.

Testimonials
We loved having Union Depot as our venue—the huge Waiting Room space meant we could spread out our guests. Beautiful high ceilings and brick walls. Easy to customize with our own vendors when we wanted to. We appreciated the gray draping that gave a more private feel to our event. The team was helpful with our ever-changing layout and did all the setup for us.

The event team was AMAZING to work with—despite our unique and stressful situation of having to change wedding venues a month before our day, your team made the process so smooth and easy. Thank you to all staff that helped us make our day so special!

It really was an incredible night! Thank you so much for all your help and suggestions through the planning stages and for keeping everything running so smoothly the day of. You are all truly amazing!
